What's Ahead
Key Milestones on the DPP Journey

2025-2026
Preparation & Technical Foundations
Rules for service providers, interoperability, and product identifiers move forward. This is the window to map your data, engage suppliers, and build internal readiness.

2027
Delegated Act Expected
The EU is anticipated to publish the Delegated Act for textiles, defining the first DPP data requirements. A transition period of ~18 months is expected to follow adoption.

2028
Transition Period
Following adoption of the Delegated Act, brands enter the implementation window. Use this time to finalize systems, complete supplier data collection, and run pilots ahead of enforcement.

2028-2030
Enforcement Begins & Expansion
Requirements are expected to be information-based rather than prescriptive. Gradual extension to more product categories follows through 2030.

Case Study
This is How Retraced Supports Loeffler
180 Loeffler Products are fully traceable:
- Customers get full transparency by scanning a QR code on each product for real-time supply chain details.
- The QR code also leads to an interactive map displaying the production journey and each manufacturing step.
- Customers can also access sustainability certifications and standards for each product.
Apart from that two-thirds of the collection is made from renewable or recycled materials. Loeffler produces in Austria and Europe, maintaining close supplier relationships based on their code of conduct.

Frequently Asked Questions
Retraced was built for the fashion and textile industry. This means the platform already supports the specific datasets brands must provide, such as multi-tier supplier traceability, certifications like GOTS or Fair Wear, and durability or recyclability metrics. Retraced not only helps you manage this data but also transforms it into consumer-facing Digital Product Passports that are compliant, transparent, and easy to use.
Retraced provides a 360° platform to collect, structure, and validate all the data you need for the DPP — from fiber composition and supplier certificates to social and environmental due diligence information. By connecting directly with your suppliers, you build a single source of truth that makes compliance smoother and reduces the risk of missing data.
You can start step by step: audit existing data in PLM or ERP, map your supply chain to find gaps, collaborate with suppliers directly in the Retraced platform, and launch pilot projects for selected collections. This structured approach helps you prepare gradually while ensuring you are fully ready before EU deadlines.
The platform enables real-time communication and data sharing with suppliers. Instead of endless email exchanges and fragmented spreadsheets, all information is collected and validated in one place. This ensures transparency, builds stronger partnerships, and provides a reliable foundation for DPP compliance.
Beyond compliance, Retraced helps brands turn regulatory requirements into a competitive advantage. By creating reliable Digital Product Passports, brands can strengthen consumer trust, showcase their sustainability efforts, and build supply chain resilience, all while streamlining internal processes and preparing for future regulations.
